Testing the motorcycle lift. Yes it’s going to hang out a little and I haven’t fabricated the track mount for the motorcycle instead I shifted all my work to the interior of the habitat. If your wondering about the bike it’s a Honda 125cc Grom that I changed all the plastics, also going to put...

Now back to my house where I have my machine shop and so I can work on it after hours and late into the nights. got the rear ladder on and if you look closely behind the rear tire you can see a 1/8”x1” aluminum frame I bent up to get a good visual idea of how the Grey water tank is going to...

Next stop the shop to put on some accessories on.

Put it back together so it was road worthy and with the box mounted to a trailer I took them both to a local electrical producing power plant where my brother works they were kind enough to allow me to use their overhead crane. My Awesome Wife (Who is always willing to jump in and help...

Thanks, here’s som more getting it ready for paint. Had to put scaffolding up around everything so the painter could reach everything as easily as possible. Months of prep work and 9 hours in one day of painting. 2 coats of non sanding primer, 2 coats of base coat in all the hard to reach areas...

Some more photos of my project, Roof Rack fabrication and test fitting

Looking good keep up the pictures.

Maybe your front body mounts.

Looks like you have a strong case. Maybe get a crashed one from them that the drive train is all good. Do a swap and have lots of spare parts. But that’s a ton of work.

🤣🤣🤣 super cool if I wasn’t working on this project that would be a fun one to build.

McMaster Carr app is great but searching things on your computer is far better. search molex connectors. I think they are the .093 size but check yours using a drill bit with the same diameter or calipers. Search Amazon for crimp tools.

Actually if you could tap the hole without drilling it any larger would be the better route. Reason being if you went the plate method you would have to machine an oring groove it the plate to match the valve body. Because the wheel doesn’t have the grove in it and it seals on the flat surface...

If you wanted the aluminum wheels and wanted to delete the CTIS valve you would need to tap the large hole and adapt it to a Schraeder valve.

Personally it’s a look thing, to me they look more heavy and cleaner without all the hoses. Definitely coming from experience not enough weight savings to make a difference still stupid heavy and difficult to mount, dismount,

Oh……Sooooo I totally forgot to mention I have a source for them. I just purchased 5 of them WITH 80% tread tires $200 each. They have almost a 100 of them. Lucky for me it’s only a 15 mile drive to get them. But he can put them on a pallet and ship the for a reasonable cost. google, Florida...

How do you add a video here?

I verified it this morning that these wheels have the exact same back backspacing as the steel wheels. To easily identify these wheels pay attention to the fact that they only have the 10 lug nut holes and the hole closest to the CTIS valve is larger than the rest of them.

Sorry guys about the shiny paint! I had to do it to make my wife happy. If you only knew how hard it was to convince her to travel the country in this set up. So I’ve had to make some sacrifices. But I’m used to trail rash, they all have a story behind them. Been back road exploring for a long...
